I'm glad I [ Got drunk and angry and petty and put everything into that one bid because I didn't want anyone else to have you ] decided to bid Think the others are pissed?
[ He doesn't answer for a while, phone down with the screen up so he can brace against the counter. Dom never makes it back to the shower, leaving an embarrassing mess after staring at the three photos sends him over the edge. At Least he can still type with one hand. ]
[ He thinks about making Teddie beg for it, just a little. He takes a photo of his hand instead, come on his palm and fingers. The second photo shows him licking it up, the top half of his face cropped out. ]
[Teddie spends more time getting ready for this date than he actually did any formal event in his life - he scrubs himself clean, he wears a face mask as he walks around his room naked and applying lotion and cologne, he makes sure his nails are clean and well-cut and he agonizes over the perfect wardrobe. He settles for a look and slicks back his hair a little before resuming the steady pacing of his room until six is due to roll around.
He feels like he's missing something. Forgetting something.]
[ There's not as much investment on his part; some hair product after the shower, thinking he really needs to dye his roots again (Dom keeps forgetting he has to, for some reason), some nicer clothes from his limited wardrobe and his favorite golden earring, dangling from the middle of his earlobe. He's pushing a sleeve down to cover the half-moon half-sun tattoo out of habit on his way out, stopping to brush a thumb over the ink instead. There's no need to do that tonight. Teddie kept his, too.
Dom's about to feel pretty damn underdressed when six comes around, standing at Teddie's door. After the knock, he goes back to looking both ways, hoping Ren doesn't coincidentally come walking down the hallway. If he's going to get his ass kicked for going on this date, let it be after? ]
[Teddie opens the door and - he smiles, wide and energetically. It's enthused and warm, like old times - times that don't feel that far back anymore, probably on account of them hooking up again. He doesn't look both ways when he reaches out to hug Dom, letting him go after a beat and seeming to compose himself again.]
... Kind of weirdly exciting, right? Sneaking around?
[It's tempting to say "why don't we stay in" though...]
[ That's the reaction to Teddie's outfit before a hug, leaving him a little stunned. Comically so. Dom gives into it, though, hand lingering on Teddie's fingers as they pull away, then self-consciously brushing the back of his head and scratching behind the ear. ]
Uh, yeah. Kinda. [ Smiling. ] I found out there's like a sushi bar here. Do you like that? We could go somewhere else. I mean, you know this place better than me.
[He wants to take Dom by the hand or the arm - but he holds himself back. It's like there's this burst of affection in his chest that wants to come through but there's really no foundation for it. They only just started... rekindling something they both know is probably a bad idea. Is he really this bad at relationships that he gets so excited for... a date?]
Lead me there. We should probably avoid the casino, but... drinks after sushi? We can even do that back in one of our rooms, for privacy. But it would be nice to catch a glimpse of the moon tonight.
No, yeah, I like that. [ It's his best attempt at a fancier date anyway, between the type of cuisine and how they've both dressed up. He wonders what the other couples are cooking up, older and with more expensive taste than Dom ever really remembers having. Maybe if he hadn't decided to divert all the money his mothers handed over into every substance that felt right at the time. ]

[ Or pretend-money, anyway.
... Why did he kind of enjoy saying that. The implication that he claimed Teddie somehow, maybe? ]
